Speaking during a political engagement, the former Deputy President appeared to turn the criticism around, making it clear that he was not desperate to work with people who did not share his political direction.
“Nimesikia Wanga akisema hawawezi fanya kazi na mimi. Mimi ndio siwezi kubali kufanya kazi na nyinyi nitaanguka,” Gachagua said, in remarks that quickly attracted attention.
His statement has added fresh tension to a heated political environment as Kenya gradually moves toward the 2027 General Election.
Gachagua has increasingly positioned himself as a major opposition voice, while political alliances continue to shift.
The remarks were particularly striking because they suggested that Gachagua would rather stand alone than enter an arrangement he considers unacceptable. To his supporters, the message sounded like a declaration of confidence and political independence.
However, his critics could interpret the statement differently, especially at a time when opposition leaders are facing pressure to unite against President William Ruto ahead of 2027.
Many people were left talking about the strong language, with some questioning whether the former Deputy President is preparing to take an even harder political stance.
The incident sparked reactions online, where supporters appeared divided over whether Gachagua should prioritize unity or remain firm on his political position.
What happened next surprised many as the quote continued circulating, fueling fresh debate about who could work together in the next election.
With Kenya’s political landscape changing rapidly, every statement from prominent leaders is being closely watched. Gachagua’s latest remarks could therefore become another important signal about the alliances that may emerge before 2027.
